Spider-Man: No Way Home just finished its opening weekend, and records are certainly falling. But, the final installment of the Spider-Man Home trilogy isn’t the only thing Marvel fans can be excited about. In two days, the final episode of Marvel’s Hawkeye will be released on Disney+, and with everything we witnessed in the previous five episodes, particularly in the latest one, we are definitely in for a wild ride in the finale.
Marvel’s Hawkeye certainly brought some huge things to Marvel Cinematic Universe. The first one is definitely the debut of Hailee Steinfeld’s Kate Bishop. The second one is the return of Florence Pugh as Yelena Belova. Pugh made her debut in the Black Widow movie starring Scarlett Johansson earlier this year, and the movie has set Yelena up to take the mantle of the Black Widow in Marvel Cinematic Universe the same way Hawkeye series has set up Kate to take the mantle of Jeremy Renner’s titular character.
“When there were early discussions of if Yelena was gonna come back I did not see it coming, that they were gonna put me and Clint against each other, which I thought was a really cool twist […] When we finished Black Widow, my whole experience with Scarlett , and she really welcomed me into the MCU. And the to jump into her scene partner’s world was just as sweet. It’s been really good first two years in the MCU.” — Florence Pugh
Yelena Belova quickly became one of the fan-favorite characters after her debut in the Black Widow movie. We don’t know what the future has in store for her in the MCU, but we can’t wait to see what the future holds, for both her and Kate, who are sealed as the successors of Scarlett Johansson’s Natasha Romanoff and Jeremy Renner’s Clint Barton. One of the great twists that the latest episode of Hawkeye provided was the return of Vincent D’Onofrio as Wilson Fisk, also known as the crime-lord Kingpin.
The final episode of Hawkeye will be released on Wednesday on Disney+.
